That's too overpriced, with petrol prices rising VR's are falling in price big time. Be patient and you'll find a better one...

That is a mint example.. will fetch quite abit of money i reckon!! If your after a VR you'll either need a good wedge of money or alot of patience! Worth it tho when your hear in the roar from the beast  :evil:

That looks a lovely example. I'm quite jealous of the shine he's managed to get off the black paintwork. Interesting (or not :smiley:) to see a gti front spoiler instead of a VR6 version.

I used to have an old 325i Sport and then drove a friends VR6. Thought the VR was a bit woolley compared to the BM, but having said that I still want one. The sound a VR makes is simply awesome in my opinion. Heard an old K plated VR leave the local garage the other day, it was fitted with a Scorpion DTM. Bloody hell I nearly wet myself :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :grin:

If you can live with the fuel consumption then go for it mate. Only live once!

no need to be jealous there not that good, they do sound great though and glide along nicely but i couldnt liv ewith fuel consumption ok for a runabout though if dont do many miles or cain it a lot which i couldnt resist sitting on second and 1st as so smooth  :cool:

do miss it though was so easy to drive fast a smooth;y but wasnt amazing or anything that special but did sound nice

ha all you lot make em sound like there amazing, ur right the bmw engine 323 325 feels much better i felt

this was my old vr6, are the later one a lot better? mine had heavy controls but told newer ones are better
